River Hawks extend Terriers pain

In
a pattern that has frustratingly continued throughout the month of January, a
third-period Terrier rally came up short and was ended by an empty-net goal. This
time it was #10 Lowell that kept BU out of the win column, taking a 3-1 victory
at Tsongas Arena. The previous time the teams met was in last season's Hockey East championship game with the River Hawks edging BU, 1-0, in former Head Coach Jack Parker's final game behind the Terrier bench.

Last night, Sean Maguire turned away a season-high 39 shots, yielding two
goals for the Terriers who again dressed only 17 skaters and then lost
blueliner Ahti Oksanen to a second-period injury.

Lowell
got goals in the first period from Scott Wilson and second period from Terrence
Wallin for a 2-0 lead.

The
power play resulting from Oksanen’s injury on a knee-to-knee hit carried into
the third period and BU capitalized when freshman Kevin Duane (photo) blasted a shot
past Connor Hellebuyck from the top of the circle for his fourth of the
season.A Cason Hohmannattempt rang off the crossbar. With Maguire pulled, Joe
Pendenza’s empty-netter finished off BU’s attempts to knot the score.

Former
All-American and Hockey East player of the year John Curry turned away all 45
shots he faced to backstop a 1-0 shutout
for the Iowa Wild over Lake Erie. Curry, who earlier this week was named to the
next inductee class for the BU Athletics Hall of Fame, earned first-star honors
and gained his third win since being called up to Iowa.

Former
Terrier blueliner David Warsofsky scored his third goal of the season for
Providence in the P-Bruins’ 5-3 loss to
